Happy Friday, Acton Families!

What a productive and exciting week across all of our studios. From globe-painting adventures to deep discussions about choices, creativity, and even world cuisine, our Heroes have been busy learning, exploring, and growing together.

🌍 Primary Studio

This week, our Primary Heroes were introduced to the continent globe as we began our journey learning about North America. They painted maps, explored the climate, and discovered the native animals that call our continent home. On top of that, we dove into the Magic Tree House series and are already on Book #2—what an adventurous start!

📘 ES Blue Studio

The ES Blue Heroes have been incredibly focused and productive this week! We read What Should Danny Do? and had powerful conversations about the power of choices and how they shape our daily lives. Heroes also revisited our studio contract and even created new contracts for dodgeball—a true demonstration of responsibility and ownership. Studio maintenance is going strong, and the Heroes are doing an amazing job keeping their space clean and sacred.

🎲 ES Green Studio

Over in the Green Cottage, our Heroes have been bringing their group game creations to life! With lots of creativity flowing, they tested out their ideas and practiced giving and receiving peer feedback to make meaningful adjustments. It’s been a week filled with innovation, teamwork, and problem-solving.

🍳 Upper Levels

What a week for the Upper Levels! We nailed down the dates and location for our Building the Tribe trip, a milestone that has everyone excited. Heroes also explored breakfast traditions from around the world, sampling culinary delights while broadening their cultural understanding. Core Skills kicked off with incredible energy, and next week promises even more excitement as learners dive into the Top Chef competition—complete with mystery basket ingredients!

It’s been such a joy watching our Heroes grow in courage, curiosity, and creativity this week. We can’t wait to see what adventures next week brings!
